non-KC topic: Raider fans, do you fear Carolina?

Mile High Mania · 12-18-2000, 10:24 AM

Denver messed up their opportunity to control their destiny yesterday (thanks guys).

But, Denver could still win the division and if Oak and Miami lose ... they could win the division and get a first round bye. How crazy is that? (I doubt it will fall that way though)

Anywho, I'm curious to hear if the Raiduh fans are nervous at all. As well, I know that most KC fans have stated they don't care what happens if KC isn't involved, but would you rather see Oakland or Denver win the division?

Denver, I am a true Raider Hater through and through. I see the Denver/Chiefs rivalry as a healthy one, but I cringe at the fact that they have a better record than us.

Yeah, I'm nervous. Oakland is a team that is beat up pretty badly. If we don't get a bye week to heal up a bit we are toast. This is real bad timing for all these injuries, but the Carolina game could be a must-win. Gruden will decide who to field after he sees the Denver-SF result. (Watch out, MileHigh. San Francisco is a much better team than they were earlier in the season). If the Broncos win, Oakland will field its wounded starters in an all-out attempt to get that bye. If you guys lose to SF, they can start patching up the injuries.

I know that I am somewhat discounting the merits of the 49ers, b/c they are explosive.

But, I think the players would rather die than lose the final game at Mile High Stadium. Ok, at least 80% of the players on that team would choose death rather than a loss.... :P

I fear the 49ers b/c they matchup nicely against that Denver defense, plus it's Rice's last game... It's not a gimme for Denver.

At home, I think that the Raiders will be all over the Panthers.

Of course the raiders fans are a little scared, they didn't get the nickname the faiders for nuthin'.

cough cough gag cough gag...If I have to choose one, I'll say Denver....since the chiefs "swept them like an old dirt floor, for count em' 2!!! Years"....and I absolutely hate everything about the Faiders, with the exception of the cheerleaders. I'll probably choose for an underdog like Phili or NO...
